Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop! We are here the last Sunday of each month and are so glad that you could join us this evening. This months theme is "It's Hip to be Square" and everything on my card is square.
It's nice every once in a while to break from the norm and do something different. I like making square cards they are fun and interesting. For this months card I did two versions I wasn't sure which one I liked better all the materials are the same for both cards just a different way of presenting them was used.
The stamp sets used were Unbound Love and With You in Mind. The card base is 4 1/4 x 8 1/2 and scored at 4 1/4 fits in regular envelop for mailing. The DSP is from the Timeless Plaid 6 x 6 paper pack and cut 4 x 4 and added to the front of the card. The rest of the cardstock was cut as follows: White 2 x 2, Daffodil Delight 2 1/4 x 2 1/4, Cajun Craze cut 2 1/2 x 2 1/2, and lastly Crushed Curry cut 2 3/4 x 2 3/4. On the white is where I stamped with Cajun Craze. All pieces were stacked and put on front of card with dimensionals. The other set was layered differently keeping lower right corners together and also put on the front of it's base with dimensionals.
I also did the inside of each card differently because again I couldn't decide which one I liked better. White was cut 4 x 4 and a strip of DSP cut 4 x 3/4 was put either on the left side or at the bottom. I also stamped and cut out a cute little cupcake which was also put on the inside.
To finish I made a little bow with the Daffodil Delight Satin Ribbon and then added three Cajun Craze Faux Glass Dots.

Very cute cards, Tina! I like how tou used the same pieces, but layered them differently. Thank you for sharing!
As Tracie said, I love how you altered your layers between the 2 cards :) I always get new ideas every month!
Tina - I love how you created two different designs with the same pieces of paper! And, honestly, I'm not sure which one I like better. Thanks so much for sharing! It was great to finally meet you in person at OnStage last month :)
Same here and thank you

Tina, cute card, I love the way you placed your 1st card squares in the bottom right corner. It was great meeting you in Raleigh in person at OnStage last month.
I finally have faces to names and getting to meet everyone and thank you
I love all of your squares and the two ways of presenting your cards. I don't think to use your first way. I need to do that. Thanks.
Thank you
What wonderful square-featured cards! I love the first one - fun layout idea!
